Baseball Info

League games are typically played on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The season typically runs from May thru July.

A single game of 6 or 7 innings (determined by age level) or 2-hour time limit are played with 6:30pm start time. No new inning
may begin after 8:30pm.

Crow River Youth Baseball League is affiliated with the Minnesota Sports Federation (MSF). MSF AA State Tournament Qualifying
League tournaments are held on weekends during the season.

Players are not allowed to register in Annandale Traveling League unless they are full time students or live within the
Annandale School District without the approval of the Annandale BB/SB Association.

Divisions are organized by level and age:

The most competitive level teams are designated as AA or A teams. ATL strives to have AA/A level competitive teams fielded at ages 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14.

The more recreational, less competitive teams are designated as B teams. These teams are fielded in ages 10 & under,
12 & under and 14 & under. These teams may play any state qualifying tournaments for which they may qualify.

All players (all ages) are to register through the Annandale BB/SB Association website.

Age Determination RulesPlayers age on April 30 of the current year participation.For example, a player who was born on April 25, 2009 would
be 10 years old for the 2019 season. A player who was born on May 5, 2009 would be 9 years old for the 2019 season even though
he/she is 10 by the time the season begins.

13 - 14 year olds play Sandy Koufax (SK)

Team Selection Criteria

Coaches will review all previous year's coach's player evaluations in catching, throwing, fielding skills, hitting, prior
experience and coach-ability. All comments/recommendations are considered.

The number of teams in each age division is determined by the number of players registered, and where players would gain
the best playing experience. The goal at all levels of competition is to keep teams at 11-12 players with a maximum of 14.

Players are allowed to play up in age division if their skills allow advanced placement, but cannot play in a division
lower than their age allows. (See age determination rules above)
